Brian Turner, director of architectural services for the Davis County School District, said Horizon Junior High in West Point is nearly complete and is expected to open for the new school year in August 2025.
Turner told district officials that classroom wings are nearly finished and that the gymnasiumwhich will be shared with West Point Cityis also close to completion. "Horizon Junior High is nearly complete and is expected to open for the new school year, August 2025," Turner said.
The update summarized current construction stages across the site and set the district's expected schedule for occupancy. Turner framed the report as a status update rather than a request for action; he did not present a funding change, formal motion, or vote during the remarks. The announcement clarifies the district's target timeline for bringing students and staff to the new building.
The construction schedule and the shared-use arrangement for the gym were the primary operational details provided. No additional budget figures, contract amendments, or implementation steps were given in the remarks, and Turner did not describe outstanding permits or approvals needed to meet the August 2025 opening date.
The district will move forward with final preparations for the 2025-26 school year unless staff later report changes to the schedule. Any formal motions, budget adjustments, or approvals necessary to finalize occupancy were not raised in the remarks Turner delivered.
